Case–control study of breast cancer and exposure to synthetic environmental chemicals among Alaska Native women [PDF]
International Journal of Circumpolar Health, 2014 Background: Exposure to environmental chemicals may impair endocrine system function. Alaska Native (AN) women may be at higher risk of exposure to these endocrine disrupting chemicals, which may contribute to breast cancer in this population. Objective:

Proliferative Effects of Estradiol, Progesterone, and Two CB Congeners and Their Metabolites on Gray Seal (Halichoerus grypus) Uterine Myocytes in Vitro [PDF]
Toxicological Sciences, 2003 Gray seal females living in the Baltic Sea have been found to exhibit a high prevalence of uterine leiomyomas. These animals are also known to accumulate lipid-soluble PCBs in their blubber. PCBs have documented endocrine-disrupting effects; to investigate whether the PCBs could be part of the genesis of uterine smooth muscle tumors in this species ...

Timing of maternal exposure and fetal sex determine the effects of low-level chemical mixture exposure on the fetal neuroendocrine system in sheep [PDF]
, 2016 We have shown that continuous maternal exposure to the complex mixture of environmental chemicals (ECs) found in human biosolids (sewage sludge), disrupts mRNA expression of genes crucial for development and long-term regulation of hypothalamo-pituitary ...
